Lakes The Whisky Makers Reserve No.5 52% 6x70cl

Sold Out

The Whiskymakers Reserve is an artistic exploration of maturation and blending, of flavour evolution and defining a sherry-led signature style for The Lakes Single Malt.

Showcasing a complex sherry-led, wood-forward, and flavour-packed style, each release of The Whiskymakers Reserve possesses the same distinct DNA. Varying in character, they continue to evolve in keeping with the distilleries increasing sherry cask influence and sense of adventure.

Bold, not brash, complex but not too complex, this is a rounded whisky that is smooth around the edges and mature in its make-up, with a wonderfully aromatic nose, and dried fruit, chocolate character and sweetness.

At 52% ABV, following on from four sold-out releases, it is a sophisticated evolution, matured in the finest, bespoke Oloroso, PX, and red wine casks, comprising Spanish and American oak.

The nose is perfumed and fruity, with polished oak, red apples, chocolate, and hints of Devonshire cream leading to Pecan and walnut baklava, baking spices, candied papaya, and hints of coffee, with a vibrant and creamy finish with toasted brown sugar.
